To celebrate the holidays, a variety of exciting parades and tree lighting events will be held around Bucks County throughout the next several weeks, writes Danielle Camilli for the Bucks County Courier Times.
Bristol Township Holiday Parade is taking place on Saturday, Nov. 22 at noon, beginning at Brookwood School.
The parade will feature students from Truman High School, Mummers All Stars, Eagles Pep Band, members of the Bristol Township Council, local businesses and organizations, and more, along with Santa himself.
